On the Road in the New Panamera 4S Diesel

[@MichaelBVJ]

Daammn, driving 1k kilometers straight in a Panamera gotta be one of my dreams

[@lioneyes2590]

Speng why?

[@1fires1]

my dream is to get a decent working car vacuum cleaner got any suggestions?

[@broke123]

I agree mate, it looks very nice and comfortable as a long distance cruiser. Not sure I'd drop 150k on one but definitely nicer to look at the than the older one.

[@MichaelBVJ]

Lion Eyes Because I love roadtripping with my friends, and the Panamera is like the ultimate cruiser and would make the whole experience 1000 times better than my current car. Not to say its like my dream or lifegoal, but something I dont think will happen as i'm in the military with a shitty paycheck. Therefore "Dream"

[@MichaelBVJ]

broke123 Exaclty! I wouldnt to it either, but like a one-time megacruise like Tim does. Just with 3 friends cruising across countries would be fucking epic

[@Cactaceae33]

I think the V8 Diesel sounds very nice, to be honest.

[@Arrrbol]

Diesel V8s sound better at low RPM

[@danI43541]

Cactaceae33 it doesn't sound bad but I'm not sure if it has a sound generator..

[@ThePhiltastic]

It has a sound generator. That's all fake sound. Nothing coming from the engine here. Just like the Audi sq5

[@tommihommi1]

sound generators are one of the more stupid "innovations" in the last few years

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Outside it'll be rattling and clattering like any other CRD.

[@d0718]

I just love the Panameras centre tunnel both in G1 and G2 Makes you feel like a jet pilot

[@shanebovell6733]

I always loved the rational behind the car and the numbers but the looks always held it back. I think this one looks beautiful though. Would definitely be a must buy if I could afford it.

[@Si1983h]

Andreas Breslawski I don't think it's faster than an RS7, the RS7 is a seriously quick car. I'm with you on it being sportier though, and less practical (not that it's a particularly impractical car).

[@MpowerRick]

I really love all the lights inside when evening kicked in!! Love the Panamera!!!

[@oooFEEDBACKooo]

I just went back to look at your FF driving through France and it is 2 levels above the understated Panamera.Ferraris are just so sexy!That interior and the sound.Wow!

[@mateliparteliani2033]

Nic Nac panamera is much much better than ff. U are blindLoL.

[@oooFEEDBACKooo]

Thank you.Can you help me cross the road?

[@arch417powersports]

I love diesel torque!

[@bangcock1112]

Ok.

[@I_am_Jesus_though]

It's amazing there so underrated

[@ibeunstoppable]

You should get a Porsche Panamera Turbo S with the Race Chip to replace your FF!

[@ibeunstoppable]

cerebellum lease it.

[@mrminiature11]

IUHOOSIERIU don't think that's his style

[@sahotaquack1]

he's FF is financed..

[@bammetjepindakaas]

Please NEVER do that schmee

[@ibeunstoppable]

controlgames what would be your replacement for the FF? I think the Mercedes S65 AMG Sedan would be a worthy replacement as well.

[@MrDrakedrake]

And it looks absolut stunning in reality :-)

[@sionbonkwok6937]

panamera could replace bmw 7series...

[@FullmetalJun]

It's amazing to see the headlights continuously adjusting for optimal vision at night!

[@resnonverba137]

Theses diesels seem to be coming on in leaps and bounds. Great to have a broadened choice of interesting cars.

[@sgdtv1368]

Get a used s63 AMG as the FF replacement just a thought

[@jeebus2121]

You don't mean an e63 estate?

[@misterlauu]

you don't mean an S65 Msport Quattro?

[@Mat.Carvalho]

You don't mean an S65 AMG Quadrifoglio?

[@emmanuelmuriungi8154]

You don't mean an S69 Maybach STi

[@3ArtDigital]

You content keeps getting better! Thanks for this Shmee!

[@anasitani7827]

you are the best bro have fun in the alps

[@Norwichjase]

Those lights are incredible. Love how they follow the road and corners, i always enjoy that in my car (not a porsche)

[@MTobin1000]

Tim, this was really a great video. It was very helpful to see how you change the "chip settings" to race, normal and stock. Very interesting and you video nailed it. Nicely done. (Mike in Ohio)

[@discoverlight]

I'm so excited for the upcoming videos in your channel, from South Africa with the 2018 s650 Landoulet. I can't wait.

[@helloworld-bu1vk]

"I like it twisted and tight" -Shmee 2017

[@antonoat]

Nice one Tim, thanks for that. Enjoy your skiing. cheers

[@SchwizzZer]

"Driving thru Sitzerland is always a little bit funky". Ohh thank you Shmee!

[@YOLOJOKER]

THIS IS HOW SHMEE150 SAYS CHEERS... CHEEHEHEHERRTHS

[@christian101112]

how comfortable is this car compared to your FF?

[@the-boring-car-guy]

Some White Guy must be way more comfortable

[@TeoZMuff313]

Some White Guy Panamera is significantly more comfortable. Ride and noise.

[@ZenGamer97]

great video. flying out skiing in the morning myself

[@carzappzapp852]

That's a hell of trip!! I live very near Meribel! ❄️

[@hrcanda]

Which size are the OZ's? They look bang on

[@kathyzelen5898]

I bought this car because of you review and I also added a chip because of you love it, thanks

[@samcooper5748]

Nice car but that mountain road would be best experienced with a 6.3l NA V12 don't you think? 👀

[@noxity123]

Shouldn't "stock mode" be when the race chip is turned off and not in efficiency mode? Why have an efficiency mode if it is identical to off?

[@randomguyed]

Hi from Manila, Philippines!!

[@DylanPompa]

ok

[@LincolnFalana]

Carlos de Luna HI!!!!

[@DylanPompa]

Carlos de Luna lol mad?

[@MrJorgesedanop]

please show us a little bit of the places you visit.. love to see Germany or the French alps and know them a litlle bit.. good content my friend

[@tutkeraly3]

Seems to be much improved over the predecessor. Makr as many vids as possible please. great car. great vid!

[@sandofarms]

I must buy 10 of these Panameras I love it!

[@Friso89]

Tim, I agree on your comment about the ACC. My Audi S3 8V has it as well and I never use it, while I normally love to use cruise control on long drives. Especially in traffic it leaves huge gaps, so other people will always jump in front of you + when I'm approaching a truck on a motorway, it starts decreasing the speed like 300m in advance (like you mentioned). Somehow this system can not be deactivated manually and therefor I would never ever choose this option on my future car.

[@AutomotiveMike]

This should be your daily driver!

[@SupercarsofMike]

Buen video Tim. Yo lo he analizado en Mi Canal esta semana y esta super bien. Me encanto la experiencia. Probe el 4s, 440 cv

[@jamespugh]

Porches awd turbo diesel is a dream sedan or long holiday cruiser. 4wd make great all weather and porche got the interior perfect. With race chip add up to 1000 lb of torq is crazy

[@leonardadelmann5948]

Just a tip. There is a channel called NSC. Stands for no copyright sound. They share tons of tunes which you can play without having any issues with copyright. If you'd like to play some tunes. Nice review, keep up the good work. Greetings from Sweden

[@Shmee150]

I did before and I still got a copyright complaint :(

[@paulchen508]

2000kg car with 500hp has a range of 1000km. Not bad

[@salmansengul]

Paul He Diesel

[@ashishpatel350]

Is this about 500 American hp? What's the advertised mpg?

[@taldzor]

shmee are you gonna shooting some of clip you skiing?

[@alexlam24]

King yes

[@taldzor]

nice Audi bro.

[@alexlam24]

King thanks

[@kozgazdok]

That was interesting! Nice job!

[@TechMeNowTV]

Man I love the Panamera!

[@Shmee150]

I think it's a very popular car amongst you guys, hopefully you enjoy the coming videos with it

[@amcluesent]

Strange Porsche does not enable that power from stock

[@whannel525]

What are the 'Play/Pause' and 'Fast Forward' buttons on your jacket for? Noticed them at the end of the clip haha

[@Miki.Michaeli]

@shmee150 I suggest to try get your hands on a Turbo model! can be a great replacement for the FF!

[@janvandenbos7085]

Very nice Tim, Porshe Panamera diesel, in race mode, very fuel efficiënt car, thanks for sharing, Shmee

[@stefangeorgiev5855]

I just got her! Unbelievable machine! Pulls like an elephant and in the same time burns 10-12 l/100 km. I think she has more than 421 hp? I had Audi A8 4.2 TDI 385 hp for 3 years and it's nothing like it.

[@rooboy69]

I feel your pain shmee. I hate all the rain when I'm driving up to the Swiss Alps to my daddy's cabin too. but generally my chauffeur is driving so the adaptive cruise control doesn't bother me.

[@michaeldavis9422]

I always used to slow down in the rain, well after a crash anyway. Lower speed limit in the rain, a good idea for the UK?

[@supercarshq1756]

Are you still going to take the FF to the alps

[@Shmee150]

Yes, I'm doing a full trip in the FF in a few weeks time, it'll be about 3 weeks touring Europe and visiting a lot of places!

[@wildernessnation6859]

Shmee150 will you be visiting Ireland?

[@Shmee150]

No, sorry, heading in the direction of the Alps

[@Anankin12]

Shmee150 And where and when exactly? Just Switzerland and France or also Italy?

[@avimakkar]

Shmee150 ferrari FF or Panamera 4s ? Which one will you choose

[@Vollgasmus7]

What an amazing car :)

[@TheEd213]

Over 1k km's range is nuts! I'm working in Mottaret above Meribel for this season, do you have a meeting scheduled whilst you're here?

[@veemacks7255]

That distance for the adaptive cruise control can probably be adjusted. It can in my Mercedes. It's on the cruise-control stalk, there's a dial where I get to choose the gap distance.

[@Shmee150]

Yup I am aware of that :)

[@Mr2005BUSA]

Your getting close to 1 million subscribers. You going to have a celebration of some sort when you hit it? That; and visiting family, would be worth flying back to my homeland for.

[@maximusheronimus23980]

Hi Shmee150, would you consider a Panamera as succesor for the FF? it would be a awesome care for long and comfortable roadtrips !

[@goldfalco]

Paul Wallace would be proud of that fuel economy

[@hxduck]

Would love to see your take on the Maserati Quattroporte!

[@kahlaaja]

TDI VAG:s with a tank of over 50 litres have been capable of over 1k km since at least late 90´s. Did once bravely 1030km with my -98 tdi A3 to discover the next fill up was like 52ltr of the 55ltr capasity. Of course those

[@lagibizar]

Maybe in the future can drive up a ski resort in the FF with Jon Olsson once he gets his Wraith (odd choice considering the supercars he's had lately) and do some skiing.

[@VandalDraxyy]

Would you ever consider purchasing a 4x4 for some of the long journeys :)

[@001mrjam]

Actually love the panamara! great GT car

[@MDavzn]

I feel like even standard those stats are insane

[@brooksdarryl]

Any idea when (or if) the diesel will be available in the U.S.??

[@danI43541]

What was your actual fuel economy in liters/100km? But 1.000km range is amazing,

[@AlexanderIrwin]

Don't know what your plans are while in Meribel but If you would like to have company on the slopes I'm based in the next valley in Courchevel.

[@brotherbryan2414]

I would sooner have the controller hardwired in. Maybe even replacing the stock switches. I understand that would been more modification and expense, however that would be my preference

[@d0718]

That's quite a cool positioning for the mobile phone holder

[@fatmitch1421]

Did you have any problems with door closing? I heard many opinions that the door handle inside is too far.

[@kimjongun2540]

Bruv uphill towards the skiing village is the best part

[@betaich]

Hi Tim, how does the quality of the interior compare between the FF and the new Panamera?

[@Shmee150]

New Panamera is way better than the Ferrari, but that is logical. The Panamera is built by Germans and brand new.

[@betaich]

Okay first thanks for the answer. And you're right after thinking about it, it is logical. But if you could compare it to any other car you tested what would you say?

[@just673]

Shmee150 Deustche Autos sind gut 👌

[@user-rp2fw5kr4t]

also cant wait for your amg GTR has arrived im sure the vids will be great

[@Shmee150]

Still six months away ;)

[@Shmee150]

Not sure, it is not planned yet

[@wildernessnation6859]

shmee will you ever get a bugatti? (veyron or chiron like EVER?)

[@Shmee150]

Not unless I come up with some genius business idea!

[@wildernessnation6859]

Shmee150 haha

[@shyn2104]

did you fill it up before reaching the resort? how many liters?

[@N.Wesselmann]

you should to Testdrive the turbo as well

[@oof9090]

Isn't the X6M50d about the same in terms of range?

[@ezillion887]

will you get a racechip for one of your cars?

[@Shmee150]

Nope not planning to

[@yaseeenali636]

You wanna know who the coolest person is? Read the first word 😘

[@joshuadowson2867]

Hey tim where are you going skiing because i am going to go to val dí sare next week

[@Shmee150]

Enjoy, that's a great place

[@nikolaykumchev9530]

This might have the optional 100 litre fuel tank which is almost double the size of standard BMW 3 series / Merc C Class tanks and should easily give a 1000km cruising range.

[@Lightunseen]

I think the car might have the 90l tank, at least that's an option which you can choose when you order a Panamera.

[@yusufandika9092]

I think this Panamera 4S Diesel can replace your Ferarri FF, but the problem is the noise in that diesel engine

[@Lab51102]

bro love ur videos

[@fietsjuh]

Shmee, what's the average CPM in UK? Just curious!

[@golf1diesel]

Funny how no one mentions the fuel tank capacity of the car.They just see the power and the distance. It's a big difference between a 90 liters fuel tank like this car has and let's say a 70 l tank.Regardless,it's good for it's specifications.

[@Kxji]

Is this car lighter then the first generation?

[@itswhitenoise9607]

I can see plenty of people suggesting you replace the FF with a variant of that Panamera already. haha

[@clockman47]

THANKS TIM

[@YTuberosity]

Having to stop, pull out a phone, and make a change to performance settings seems bothersome. Surely the RaceChip engineers could have integrated something on the dashboard for on-the-fly changes. Also the fuel tank is 75L in the Diesel so the economy displayed here is great for a 420hp car.

[@hanspratama6563]

is that this version is Sport Turismo?

[@Bryan-fg3ey]

that's a decent power and torque increase,just shows how 'safe' porsche leave the engine from the factory.

[@davidg5425]

Nice.. can you turn off the safety controls you spoke about??

[@Shmee150]

Yup you can, I will show that tomorrow :)

[@justaguywholikescars2896]

Wait is the range of the car 830 km or 830 Miles

[@V8Komp_Edits]

Are they making a hybrid version of this generation?

[@Shmee150]

They already did

[@hallga2]

My 3.0 diesel PANAMERA @ 75mph does 52 mpg. That equals over 900 mls (1500 km) range!

[@rockaboom8645]

Shmee are you planning on getting the race chip for any of your cars?

[@Shmee150]

Nope not at this moment.

[@rockaboom8645]

Shmee150 also is there anything about the panamera you'd have over the FF?

[@Shmee150]

Multimedia system? Space in the back and the extra doors making it easy to step in and out.

[@amda3686]

Nice car especially the red stripes.

[@richardbekkers6789]

fuel no worry s mate and it is looking mutch better

[@Rodrigoxki]

give us a video in the panamera turbo!

[@pipnmaz]

I went in search of a RaceChip box for my car but on research they are getting slated for their software app which does not work on later Android versions. Suspicious this may be why there's an old phone in the car with a working version of the RaceChip app working, otherwise you'd be up the creek bud. It certainly would be interesting if you spoke to your RaceChip contacts and asked for their comment on the amount of unhappy customers who can't use their software.

[@pipnmaz]

Brasil Blitzer thanks for the info. I don't own an iPhone and never have so wouldn't pick up on what version that phone is. I'm basing my information on the RaceChip app reviews in the Google play store for android users. the info there seems to be bad for android users with any modern devices running an up to date version of Android. any potential news on the app developers may draw more customers to RaceChip as I've always had superchips bluefin installed on my cars.

[@RamcharanReddyme]

how much mpg have got in 1000+ miles ?
